Chapter 32 No matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education

"No wonder we have a lot of special talents in Xia Village. It turns out that there are also bonuses brought by the dancers."

Chu Tian found that he had underestimated the life occupations represented by special talents. The life occupations had special bonuses to territory or buildings. The contribution of these talents to Xia Village was not insignificant.

In the past, Chu Tian thought that dancing girls were dispensable in life, but now it seems that this may not be the case.

The Jiaofangsi in "Lord" is similar to the Jiaofang in the Tang Dynasty. It manages acrobatics and traditional music, and is equivalent to a palace orchestra. Although its status is not high, it is not an indecent institution. Instead, it is very serious and can bring benefits to the territory.

Get a lot of bonuses.

"You can live in Xia Village with peace of mind from now on. There is no Jiaofang Secretary in the village for the time being, but don't worry, the Lord's Mansion will soon announce subsidies for unemployed special talents. All unemployed special talents can come to the Lord's Mansion to apply for subsidies."

In order to retain mid-level special talents, Chutian even implemented the same measures as reality. Before there is no suitable special building, special talents can be given subsidies to meet their living needs. Each villager has his own income, and those who have no income

Villagers may become refugees or beggars again.

It was the lord's dereliction of duty to displace two mid-level special talents.

Xiao Zhu and Xiao Qing were moved when they heard that special talents were given preferential treatment: "If this is true, the village chief is really hungry for talents."

A scholar dies for his confidant, and the two people who can change jobs and become dancers also understand this truth.

"These are all things that should be done."

Chu Tian calculated that there were 112 special talents in the village, most of whom were already working in farmland, medical clinics, mines, wood processing workshops, taverns and other buildings. However, there were two special talents in front of him who did not have suitable buildings to accommodate them.

Probably not much.

The Lord's Mansion gives them a small monthly allowance to keep them here, and their own effects alone can contribute to Xia Cun.

"I play music in the village during the New Year and festivals to boost morale and people's hearts. Please don't refuse when the time comes."

Chutian wants to bring out their value.

Xiao Qing pursed her lips and smiled and said: "If you have your orders, we will be happy to do so."

Chu Tian asked the two of them to apply for subsidies.

Then he found Li Kui and issued subsidies to all registered special talents who did not have suitable buildings to house them.

The amount of the subsidy is related to the grade of special talents, and intermediate talents can receive higher subsidies.

According to Li Kui's statistics, there are a total of 17 special talents who have no jobs. After all, Xiacun is not a town, and there are still a lot of facilities that are not available. It can only be said that for future plans, it is necessary to spend a small amount of money to keep them.

The effect of this was pretty good. These people were grateful to Chutian and lived and worked in peace and contentment in Xia Village.

Population registration has exposed many problems. In addition to the problem of special talents who are not yet employed, there is also the problem of children's schooling.

There are about 300 children under the age of 15 in Xiacun, including 150 school-age children. One thatched cottage can only accommodate 50 school children.

So Chu Tian arranged to build two more thatched cottages.

The thatched cottage is the simplest cultural building. As long as there is a teacher, it can be run and it can improve people's hearts. The probability of children graduating from the thatched cottage to become special talents increases.

For schoolchildren to graduate from the thatched cottage, it can take as long as five or six years, or as short as two or three years.

This is a long-term investment. For the sustainable development of the territory, Chutian must cultivate talents at all times. Moreover, the talents cultivated by the territory themselves are more loyal to the lord and will not be easily lost.

The funds for the thatched cottage mainly include the salary of the teacher and the cost of purchasing calligraphy for the study. The salary of a low-level teacher is about 2 taels of silver a month, and he can teach 50 students. Everything for the calligraphy in the study is simple and cheap.

Brush and paper.

Chutian, who was short of money, did not implement compulsory education and charged each child one tael of silver per year for tuition to make up for the expenses of the thatched cottage.

"One tael of silver? No, if you just post a notice like this, your policy will be violated." Xia Liang from Xiaozhu Village heard Chu Tian mention the idea of ​​charging tuition fees and shook his head repeatedly, "You can post a notice, just say you need two taels of silver."

Two silvers a year."

"You are too black-hearted..."

"Listen patiently to me. Once the villagers report that two to one year is too expensive, you will comply with public opinion and lower the fee to one to two years. Wouldn't you get the results you want? And the villagers will be grateful.

"

"In addition, if a family has two or more children, only the first child will receive one tael of silver, and the other children will receive half a tael of silver per year. Villagers may even think that having more children means they will earn money. So

On the one hand, it can not only reduce the burden on the villagers, encourage more children, but also encourage the villagers to send their children to school. The disadvantage is that the tuition fees collected are reduced. How to choose depends on your ideas."

Xia Liang's analysis was refreshing to Chu Tian. This guy is simply a business genius.

Perhaps the vast majority of players are indifferent to agriculture, but after thousands of years of summarizing economic routines, some players are very business-minded.

Soon a notice was posted on the village's crude notice board.

A group of villagers came to watch, and the literate among them read: "No matter how poor you are, you can't afford education, and no matter how hard it is, you can't have children. The Xiacun Thatched Cottage only needs two taels of silver per year to recruit school children..."

"I don't care if I'm rude. Isn't it just for the sake of our children that we support our families?"

"Two taels of silver is too expensive! If a family has three children, wouldn't it cost six taels of silver every year? The monthly salary of a light infantryman is only one tael of silver. Six taels of silver is a huge sum of money. This

In this world, it’s good if you can have a full stomach, but how can you still have the money to make your children literate?”

"That's right, two taels of silver is too expensive!"

"But if we don't have money, won't it be impossible for our children to be literate for the rest of their lives? If they can be literate, they may have the opportunity to become Renshangren in the future."

"Let's go talk to the village chief and ask him to charge less."

Sure enough, as soon as this notice was posted, it immediately caused an uproar among the villagers.

The villagers who loved their son gathered together and came to the Lord's Mansion to ask Chu Tian to reduce the tuition fees.

Chu Tian was troubled by his old ways, and finally said resolutely: "Okay, for the sake of the children of all the villagers and elders, each schoolchild will only receive one tael of silver a year. If a family has multiple children entering the thatched cottage, only the first will be paid.

One child needs to pay one tael, and the other children only need to pay half a tael!"

The villagers did not expect that their petition could be successful, and the village chief cut the cost in half at once, which also reduced the burden on families with a larger population, so they all praised him: "The village chief is so wise!"

Chu Tian still spoke with sincerity and sincerity: "Poor parents in the world, please rest assured that in the future, when selecting officials, priority will be given to literate people."

Chu Tian hinted that the children who came out of the thatched cottage might become officials in the future, which stimulated the villagers even more. They wanted to send their children to the thatched cottage immediately, maybe they could become scholars in the future.
